Vancouver Restaurants

  1. Bin 941

    Funky, bohemian and packed every evening, this late-night, cave-like nook is centered on a candelabra-lit tapas bar and lined with tiny tables. The food is all about hedonistic sampling and taste-tripping small plates - east-west crab cakes or slow-roasted pork tenderloin are recommended - and, like the restaurant itself, there's a small and quirky but perfectly formed wine list.

  2. Bin 942

    This tiny but exceedingly cozy lounge is a convivial late night hangout if you fancy a few dishes of food and a bottle or two of wine with chatty friends. Among the best 'tapatizers' are sashimi-style ahi tuna and portobello mushroom cutlets, which pair perfectly with a select array of good beers - the Russell Brewing Cream Ale is best - and a compact but well-chosen wine list of Australian, Californian, European and BC tipples.

  3. La Bodega

    The most authentic Spanish restaurant in Vancouver, it's all about the tasting plates at this country-style tapas bar. Pull up a chair, order a jug of sangria and decide on a few shareable treats from the extensive menu - if you're feeling spicy, the chorizo sausage hits the spot and the Spanish meatballs are justifiably popular. There's a great atmosphere here, so don't be surprised if you find yourself staying for more than a few hours.
